Relationship Matters: Wives

June 1, 2025

is designed to put the of Jesus on display.

 

My notes:


 

Ephesians 5: 21-24 (NLT)
And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church. As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything.

 

Ephesians 5: 25-26; 31-33 (NLT)
For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.
As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one. So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

 

Ephesians 5: 21-24 (NLT)
And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church. As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything.

My notes:

 

Ephesians 5:21 (NLT)
And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

 

Revelation 21:2-3 (NLT)
And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them.

 

Ephesians 5:31-32 (NLT)
As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.

 

My notes:

 

Do you realize that can be an answer to Jesus’ prayer?

My notes:

 

Marriage is about getting our way. It’s about getting out of the way so that Jesus can be put on display.
